Frequently asked in San Francisco
- Do I need a tax preparer near me in San Francisco, or can I work with you remotely?
- You can work with us entirely remotely, and most of our clients do. THE TAX CUTTERY is 100% virtual by design — secure document sharing, no driving, no waiting room. The Golden Gate Desk has a real (628) number, backed by a national virtual practice.
- I have RSUs and stock options. Can you handle equity compensation?
- Yes. Equity compensation is one of the most common reasons San Francisco taxpayers reach out. RSU vesting events, ISO/NSO dispositions, ESPP purchases, and 83(b) elections each have their own tax treatment. We read your brokerage statements, your W-2s, and your 1099-Bs, and make sure the cost basis is correct — which is where most returns go wrong.
- I haven't filed in a few years. Can you actually fix that?
- Yes. We reconstruct your records from whatever you have — W-2s, bank statements, prior-year transcripts from the IRS — file the missing years, and get you a current account transcript so you know exactly where you stand. Most people in this situation are surprised by how straightforward the process is once someone who knows the system takes over.
- What makes THE TAX CUTTERY different from a regular San Francisco tax preparer?
- We're one national firm organized as regional desks — not a franchise, not a chain, not a call center. The Golden Gate Desk is a real desk with a real (628) number, backed by a coast-to-coast practice with Enrolled Agent representation rights before the IRS. Same person, same file, same standard of care — whether you're in San Francisco or anywhere else in the country.
- Is this a real firm?
- THE TAX CUTTERY is one national, trademarked firm organized as regional desks. The Golden Gate Desk has a real (628) 900-1040 number, backed by a coast-to-coast virtual practice. No call center. No routing menu. The practitioner assigned to your file knows your situation before responding.
